The historical legend of Kannonji
According to legend, more than 2,000 years ago, Master Cihang, a Buddhist paradise in nothingness, observed that war was raging in the eastern soil and all beings were struggling in infinite suffering. Mercifully, Master Cihang decided to go down to earth to transform all beings in the East. Master Cihang from the lower bound came to Danyang City, the capital of Chu State (now in the middle of Danjiang Reservoir in Xichuan County, Nanyang City, Henan Province), and gave birth to the daughter of Queen Zhuang, who was pregnant for 18 months, and was called Princess Miaoshan. When Princess Miaoshan was born, it was very strange. At first, rosy clouds filled the sky in Yue Xian, and then dark clouds rolled, thunder and lightning. This astronomical phenomenon surprised the Chinese people, and even was used by the malicious "Prime Minister Huo" to confuse the Queen Mother, saying that "Yincui gorge was born different and must be a demon. In troubled times, the country will inevitably die, and it must be removed immediately to make the country prosperous and the people safe." Originally, I was worried that there were three princesses in the royal family without a prince, which was quite unnecessary for the birth of the third princess. Moreover, the abnormal phenomenon of Yincui gorge's birth not only made the queen mother suspicious, but also made the city people talk about it and rumors spread everywhere. The queen mother believed Prime Minister Huo's words and forced the Wang couple, who had always been filial, to execute Yincui gorge quickly. In this desperate situation, Yincui gorge's life is at a critical moment, and Ma Yin, the wife of Yin Taiyi, a chivalrous midwife, came to the rescue. Ma Yin put Yincui gorge in the medicine cabinet and took her out of the palace. She hugged Princess Miaoshan overnight, fled Kyoto with her two-year-old son Yin Ge, and returned to her hometown of Phoenix Slope in Longwanggou, Nanyang. Soon, Dr. Yin resigned and returned to his hometown. Although Miaoshan is a princess, she grew up in the rural area of Shan Ye in the northern suburb of Nanyang. Although she ate coarse grains, she grew up slowly under the careful care of Ma Yin and his wife. A family of four is happy and enjoys family happiness. As for the true identity of Princess Miaoshan, no one knows except Ma Yin and his wife.

Although Princess Miaoshan grew up in the countryside of Shan Ye, she was different from others since she was a child. She is smart and knowledgeable, and she studied medicine with her father. Her pathology and medicinal properties even surpassed that of her brother "Yin Ge", and she was just right to treat people, treat people at different times and regulate Yin and Yang. The three girls are beautiful, virtuous and considerate, and have become role models for all local girls. Whoever has a girl wants to send her daughter to Ma Yin's house to play with the three girls, hoping that her girl can be influenced by the three girls and become virtuous. Whoever gives birth to a boy will be severely disciplined and sent to school. Everyone wants his boy to be the best and lucky to marry a third girl. Since childhood, all three girls are kind and helpful. When they see the poor, they will give them food and clothes, and more commonly, they will give up drugs and cure diseases. In the seven villages and eight villages near Longwanggou, whoever is in trouble will definitely get the help of the third girl, and whoever is poor will definitely get the charity of the third girl. Three girls can be good at persuading others and resolving contradictions from an early age. There are contradictions in the family neighborhood of seven villages and eight villages, and the respected people in the village can't solve them. People will find three girls' homes and let them judge. Three girls never argue with others, never show others loudly, always persuade them in good faith and use clever metaphors to resolve conflicts for their neighbors. Three girls became the symbol of wisdom and fairness in this area. Therefore, the third girl is also the most respected and lively home in this area. The three girls grow up day by day, and their beauty, virtue, wisdom and kindness have become the pride of people in this area, and they are also the representatives of auspiciousness and harmony in this area. Three girls' fame is getting bigger and bigger, and many rich and powerful people and bureaucrats are scrambling to propose marriage to three girls' families, and the horses and chariots that propose marriage have already broken through the Yin family. But the three girls resolutely refused to marry and politely refused to propose. Three girls have no intention of getting married because of the suffering of all beings. The beauty of the third girl attracted the eyes of many dude disciples and gangsters. They tried their best to get her, but these dude disciples and gangsters left happily and came back in shame. Because no matter how bad disciple Wan was, no matter how many evil thoughts he had when he went, as soon as he saw these three girls, he was deceived by their beauty and virtue. Through the sound of their guidance, these gangsters immediately felt guilty, ashamed and left with shame. In fact, the three girls studied medicine since childhood, combining "studying medicine, treating diseases and practicing monasticism in Xiu De". Coupled with the Buddha's enlightenment, the three girls have long known their past lives, and it is their responsibility to make all beings happy from suffering. What can these gangsters do with Miaoshan? It's just a pipe dream. Nevertheless, more and more suitors seriously interfered with the quiet monastic life of the three girls. In order to avoid these pursuers, the three girls had to show their intentions to their parents, hoping to find a quiet place and close the door to the monastery. Ma Yin and his wife knew that Princess Miaoshan was born ambitious, so they had to reluctantly give up what they wanted and send their daughter to Zizhulin, Zi Shan for rest. One night, three girls meditated and saw the Buddha. The Buddha said to Princess Miaoshan, "The State of Chu is in trouble. Your father, king and mother are all possessed. You should rescue them as soon as possible. " The Buddha also gave a bottle of manna and a willow magic weapon to help. The next morning, as soon as Dr. and Mrs. Yin opened the door, they saw Miaoshan kneeling outside the room with tears on her face. Dr. Yin and his wife didn't know what had happened to their daughter and hurried out to help her, but Miaoshan couldn't afford it. He said flatly: "Parents don't help their daughters, please worship Miaoshan for eighteen years!" Knowing that her daughter already knew her life story, Mr. and Mrs. Ma Yin were surprised and asked, "How do you know that you were not born by us?" Princess Miaoshan told her parents that this was a revelation from the Buddha. Now something has happened to Chu, and her parents are in danger. Buddha told me to save them quickly. I don't know when my daughter will come back, so I came to say goodbye. My daughter who has worked hard to raise 18 years will fly in a blink of an eye. Mrs. Yin's wife was in tears, telling the story that the princess was killed and the husband and wife rescued each other 18 years ago. A thousand exhortations told Miaoshan to be careful when the court was in trouble. Yin Ge and nursery rhyme Shancai escorted Princess Miaoshan back to Danyang City, the capital of Chu. Besides, after Zhuang Wang and his wife ventured to send Yincui gorge out of the palace, they dared not ask any questions for eighteen years. Exactly: eighteen years of life and death are endless, without thinking, never forgetting. A heart of flesh and blood! Every time I think of Yincui gorge, I wonder if she is alive or dead, and the king and his wife are extremely sad. Eighteen years of hard thinking turned into pain in my heart and I dare not provoke each other. That night, Zhuang Wang and his wife had the same dream at the same time. They dreamed that Yincui gorge was dressed in rags and burned as firewood on the mountain. She was pushed off a cliff by a black witch and died. Zhuang Wang and his wife were awakened by the scene in the dream at the same time and asked each other, but it was the same dream, so they firmly believed that the dream was true and burst into tears. King Zhuang was blind from crying. After the queen was in a coma, she was unconscious. She has been chanting the name "Miaoshan" all day. The king and queen of Zhuang suffered from strange diseases, which caused great chaos in national affairs. People loyal to the monarch are worried; Those who have no motive are secretly rubbing their hands. On the other hand, Wang Zhuang is blind, but clear-headed. He knew that the country could not live without a monarch for a day, and took care of state affairs when he was sick. He immediately recalled Qi Shu to supervise the country, let Da Xu (the champion of Wu) protect the country and let Er Xu "the champion of Wen" run the country. Huo, the prime minister who has been spying on the country for a long time, is at a loss. At the same time, we recruit doctors from all walks of life and constantly allocate prescriptions, hoping to cure eye diseases and queen's disease as soon as possible. But five days passed, ten days passed, and half a month passed. Zhuang Wang's eye disease and the queen's hysteria showed no signs of improvement. "Is God going to destroy me?" Zhuang Wang can't help feeling pessimistic and dry. JiShu heart nasty, clearly know that the prime minister Mr Ready to move, two xu in the struggle for power. They are old and weak, and the current state of the country can cope for a while, but it will change for a long time. Qi's uncle used his quick wits, posted a royal list and called the world's famous doctors to come for treatment. However, many people exposed the list and tried to cure it, but it still had no obvious effect. On this day, Princess Miaoshan came to the gate of the imperial city with Yin Ge's kindness, took off the imperial order and asked for a trial treatment of your majesty. When Zhuang Wang learned that the person who leaked the list turned out to be a young girl, he was really sad and thought, "Even such a young woman came to try to treat it. Is there no talent in China, and the strange diseases of the Queen and I can no longer be cured? " Prime Minister Huo is secretly recruiting, and his attitude towards me is getting more and more prosperous, and the country is in danger! "King Zhuang was thinking, but was interrupted by a beautiful voice." Good! Wonderful! Very good! Wonderful! ..... "With this wonderful voice, Zhuang Wang's heart slowly calmed down, listened carefully and said clearly," Dad, don't worry, Miaoshan is still there! " King Zhuang suddenly felt dizzy and his eyes were shining, but he was crushed by a dark cloud. At this time, a strange smile came from the air: "What a good princess! If you want your parents to be saved, you need your eyes and arms! " When Wang Zhuang woke up from a coma and opened his eyes, his eye disease was surprisingly cured. Then he looked at the Empress, who also returned to normal. Is this all a dream? You can see Uncle Qi, big princess and Second Princess with a full face of fear and feel what happened. After careful inquiry, I realized that the young woman gouged out her eyes and cut off her hands. Only by using them to boil medicine can the strange diseases of the king and queen be cured. King Zhuang and Queen Zhuang knew that Princess Miaoshan had returned to the palace for rescue. I hurried to Miaoshan's room where I was recovering from illness. When the king and queen saw that Yincui gorge had lost an arm and an eye, they burst into tears. I didn't expect their long-lost daughter to know each other so well! Princess Miaoshan smiled, looked at her biological parents affectionately and calmly, and said slowly, "Father, queen and mother don't need to be sad. This is the filial piety that Miaoshan should have. Three days later, when the water came out of my clean bottle, my arms and eyes could be cured. King Zhuang and Queen Huang quickly asked, Are you serious? Miao Shan replied, "The Buddha told me. Buddha can't lie. Don't worry! " King Zhuang and Zhuang immediately offered pure bottles and willow branches on the altar and prayed every day: "Buddha! Please bless my third princess and let my good son have hands and eyes! " Three days later, a miracle appeared, and the pure bottle gave birth to manna water. King, the godfather of Miaoshan, dripped water on his crippled place with willow branches, only to see Princess Miaoshan shining with colorful golden light. In the light, Princess Miaoshan has thousands of hands and eyes. King Zhuang was shocked by this scene, so he quickly knelt down and prayed to heaven: "Buddha! I only asked Miaoshan to grow all hands and eyes, but you let her grow thousands of hands and eyes. Am I not clear, or do you not understand? I hope you can often display your magical powers and restore the image of my daughter Miaoshan's hands and eyes! " King Zhuang's prayer really worked. Princess Miaoshan restored the beautiful images of her hands and eyes in the colorful golden light. She wore a white coat, a white golden path and a bottle of pure willow branches in her hand, just like a living Buddha with a perfect lover. At this time, the room was filled with strange fragrance and the air was filled with wonderful music. After facing the king and the village, Princess Miaoshan made three big gifts: "Father and mother, Miaoshan has thanked her parents today, and her relationship is broken and she is dying. Don't be sad. Miao Shan is the reincarnation of the Buddhist country Cihang, and now it is a positive result. The Buddha named me Guanyin Bodhisattva, and gave me a thousand eyes and a thousand warrants, so that I could look after all beings in the world at any time and help them. Although my body can't be with you in the future, I will always be with you. No matter what difficulties you have with all beings, just call my name and I will come to save you. My father ruled the country for many years, and he was generous and kind, making the country rich and strong and the people safe. After Miao Shan's departure, the Buddha will give the father, the king and the mother a pair of double dragons to help the Chu state to carry on the family line without children and daughters. " After that, Princess Miaoshan bowed three times in the direction of Nanyang and said to Brother Yin, "Brother Yin, thank you for your kindness to my brothers and sisters in the past 18 years. Little sister has nothing to repay in this life. I only hope that after my brother comes home, he will be filial to my adoptive parents and cultivate my medical ethics. We will meet again after a thousand years. " Then he said to Shancai, "If the disciple's good fortune remains unchanged, you can go back to Zizhulin for practice, and I will pick you up in three months." Princess Miaoshan finished the accounts one by one and saw the colorful air. In the imperial city, bells and drums are ringing, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, and Yue Xian is lingering. Princess Miaoshan stepped on the white lotus and left leisurely. Princess Miaoshan in the air sometimes shows the image of a scholar in white, and sometimes shows the image of a thousand hands and eyes.

If Danyang City in Xichuan is the place where Princess Miaoshan lives and results, Phoenix Slope in Longwanggou, Nanyang is the place where Princess Miaoshan grew up. Princess Miaoshan once dedicated herself to the villagers here, and the villagers here also gave her infinite love. No matter whether she is Princess Miaoshan or Guanyin Bodhisattva, she will always be the "three girls" of Phoenix Slope in Longwanggou, Nanyang. In order to commemorate "Sangu", people here built temples and statues for "Sangu" where Sangu lived. No matter how times change, whether this temple is called "Huanggu Temple", "Tanghuang Temple" or "Kannonji", no matter how the sects of this temple change, Taoist Temple is still a temple, and there will always be a statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva here. On holidays, when locals come to burn incense, they will say, "Third Aunt, I will burn incense for you!" " No matter what difficulties the local villagers encounter, they will come to ask the "three aunts" to help keep them safe. The whole family went out on business, and no one looked after the house at home. When they go out, they will shout to nave: "Third Aunt, we are going out, please pay attention to the door!" In the era of working for a living, parents should go to work on time, leaving the children who are not sensible unattended. They want to lock their children in the house or yard, and always leave a message to nave when they leave: "Third Aunt, we went to work, and the baby is at home. You have been looking after it! " It can be seen that people here have respected and trusted "Miaoshan Sangu" for thousands of years. This is the hometown where Princess Miaoshan grew up, her neighbor, her hometown and her relatives. The title of "Sangu" is the natural affection of local villagers for Princess Miaoshan. According to historical records, the Tanghuang Temple in Longwanggou, Nanyang was founded in 478 BC. It was built by local villagers to commemorate the "san huang" that lived with them day and night, helped them overcome their worries and difficulties and loved each other. "san huang" not only takes care of the people near Longwanggou in Nanyang, but also strives to ensure the establishment of the country, the stability of political power and the stability of society. During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty (AD 636), Li Shimin dreamed of three grandmothers with thousands of hands and eyes. In order to protect the mountains and rivers of Li Tang forever, Li Shimin sent Wei Chijingde to rebuild the Kannonji here, and personally wrote the three golden words "Don Juan Temple" as the door plaque; In the Northern Song Dynasty, Jin people committed crimes to seize the Central Plains, and the Great Song Dynasty was in danger. Zhao Gou, King of Song Kang, was taken hostage in Jinying. It was "san huang" who sent rare birds and animals to remind Kang Wang to escape from Jinying, and offered King Nima Du Kang to cross the Yellow River to help Kang Wang calm its internal troubles and establish the Southern Song regime. Therefore, Zhao Gou, King of the Song Dynasty, wanted to move the capital to Nanyang. In 1 130, he personally allocated funds and sent Zong Ze to rebuild the "Imperial Temple". Twenty-three sons of Zhu Yuanzhang in Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Changpan, king of Tang Dynasty, sealed Nanyang. When Zhu Fang arrived in Nanyang, the first thing he did was to allocate funds to repair Kannonji, and he prayed that his third aunt would bless his regime in Nanyang for good weather and peace. Although san huang protected Tang's inheritance in Nanyang for more than 200 years, Zhu, the eighth king in the late Ming Dynasty, was a heinous bad king, deceiving men and dominating women, seizing people's land, killing and setting fires, and making Nanyang people miserable and restless. According to legend, Li Zicheng, the king of the late Ming Dynasty, marched south from Shangluo Mountain and passed by Nanyang. He learned that Zhu Yugan, the king of the Tang Dynasty, had committed a heinous crime and vowed to let Zhu Yugan kill people. However, Nanyang is a vassal fief with strong defense. Moreover, if the fief is difficult, officers and men will come from all directions to help. Li Zicheng lost the first battle and hid in the depths of Zi Shan until later. A.D. 164 1 year, on the fourth day of November of the lunar calendar, Tanghuang Temple sang opera, and the editor took several people to the temple to pray for the blessing of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and conquered Nanyang by himself, and Tang helped the people with his hand.
